Make Your Business Easier to See and Find
Channel letter signs give your business a clear, dimensional presence on a storefront or commercial building. Optional LED lighting also helps keep your name visible after dark.
A well-planned sign should match your brand, fit the building, remain readable from the expected viewing distance, and meet property and local sign requirements. Vintage Sign & Light considers these details before manufacturing begins.
What Are Channel Letter Signs?
A typical front-lit channel letter may include:
An aluminum back
Aluminum returns that form the sides
A translucent acrylic face
Trim cap around the face
Internal LED lighting
Electrical and mounting components
The exact construction depends on the sign style, building conditions, mounting method, desired appearance, and local requirements. Channel letters may be mounted directly to the building or installed on a raceway. They can use front lighting, halo lighting, a combination of both, or no internal lighting.
